Promising review: "Cereal is basically my favorite food — breakfast, afternoon snack, after-dinner snack, always snack/meal. I used to LOVE getting 'sweet cereal' (as I used to call it), but these days I tend to stick with boring 'adult' boxes as I don't want to overload on sugar. I'm so excited about Magic Spoon — it is literally magical, because it has all the yumminess of sweet cereal (I especially love the cocoa and frosted) without the downsides." —Thea A.

Promising review: "My kids always want cereal in the morning but they move slower than a snail in molasses. I bought this and loved it so much I bought a second one. They eat on the way to school so they are happy and I don’t have to yell at them quite so much to hurry up so I’m happy too. Highly recommend!!" —Megan Twiddy

Promising review: "This blanket has changed my life! I was once someone who would spend the night counting the sleepless hours as they would pass me by...not anymore! Every night when I lay down and snuggle under the Dozeology Weighted Blanket, I am instantly at peace. The blanket hugs me (it literally feels like a hug) and all my stress and worries melt away! I'm able to be relaxed rather than tense, which allows for a more peaceful sleep. I've been recommending this blanket to anyone I know that suffers from insomnia and or anxiety attacks!" —Marissa

Reviewers say it doesn't mess up their makeup if you don't remember to put it on until you're already done with your routine!
Promising review: "I love makeup and skincare and have been on the hunt for my perfect daytime face sunscreen for more than a year. I'm so glad I found this stuff because this is the BEST. This stuff feels hydrating to my dry skin, doesn't feel greasy, melts in without any leftover chalkiness or white cast, doesn't sting my skin, and doesn't mess with the makeup I put on over the top. Plus, it's not outrageously expensive like some sunscreens I've seen recommended." —Grace A.

Don't worry, it's bitter but it's harmless! Totally edible, just unpleasant. It also lasts longer than most drugstore habit-breaking polishes — and works to stop kids from sucking their thumbs!
Promising review: "During stressful times, I bite off all my nails. Once they're bitten off, it's hard for me to quit biting them so I thought I'd try this product. Well, it's been a week and I'm not biting them anymore. The taste if you do is just bitter enough to make you stop. And my nails already look better after a week. I highly recommend this product." —Cheryl Douglas

Promising review: "I took the chance to try out Ritual over six months ago, with a doubt because it is kind of pricy. But it turns out it is totally worth it. I love the smell, and they don’t make me nauseous when taking them on an empty stomach like many others do." —Kristine H.

Promising review: "If you take pills twice a day, like I do, and a lot of them, then this is for you! It's easy to use, colorful, this dispenser even holds my horse pills (fish oil and vitamin E) and all the others easily, and the lids pop up on the press of a button and snap closed securely. The line of seven on each side can be removed from the tray. It's a bit large, but all in all, it's well-made and very practical." —Thomas A. Darby
Get it from Amazon for $9.89.
Promising review: "I wanted to get more glass containers for meal-prepping my lunches for work, but without dividers. These are a perfect size for portion-control and it easily fit my protein and vegetables in one container. I like that they're glass, because they don't stain the container when I microwave them. These are also dishwasher-safe, which makes them easy to clean. The lids for these containers easily snap in place, which make them leak-proof so I can store soups and liquids without having to worry about them spilling in my lunch bag." —Merriam W

Many reviewers take their journal everywhere and buy a new one after five years, like the BuzzFeeder whose books are above!
Promising review: "My husband and I have been using this as a sort of 'positive affirmation' daily journal. We write one sentence that has made us feel positive for each day. It has really helped brighten our moods despite our busy, stressful lives. And this journal is a great format for it. I really like it a lot, and think everyone should do something like this to force themselves to think about positive things every single day." —Michelle
Get it from Amazon for $15.26.

Promising review: "I absolutely love this! Living with four roommates that don’t clean (two dogs, one cat, one lazy human), I needed some assistance in keeping my place neat and free of hair tumbleweeds. This thing is AMAZING. It’s sleek, quiet, and does an incredible job on my hard floors, rugs, and carpet. It’s very quiet, honestly I had it run at midnight last night with no interruptions to my sleep. The suction is great, and you’ll see the amazing little trails on the carpet that clean people like me live for. I even have a higher pile rug in my room that I was concerned about, but my little guy went right over it with no issues." —Megan

Clearer skin = one less thing to worry about.
Promising review: "I’ve been experimenting with these for the last month and a half, and I am addicted. They are really thin and blend into my highly freckled face incredibly well...I have gone out in public twice with them on, because when I did my last second mirror check before I got out of the car, I didn’t notice I had them on! While they absolutely help clean out the skin underneath, the biggest thing it does for me is stops me from touching my face. When I'm stressed out, I will absentmindedly touch/run my hands along my face and jaw constantly. Now, when I notice I’m doing that, I run into the bathroom and put these on any spots I have. Since they are thin and stick really well, I am able to leave them alone and stop touching my face." —MelsBells

Reviewers with braces say this a great flossing method for them! It delivers a whopping ~1400~ water pulses per minute. Talk about deep-clean.
Promising review: "I have been using this for a couple of months now and have to say I love this Waterpik. I have had dental work done and I put a little salt in a glass with some warm water and mix then put in my Waterpik. This really helps with healing my gums and keeps food out of any spaces that can get food stuck. The flosser part works great and you will not be disappointed." —H. Ginn

This is especially great for dry, sensitive skin.
Promising review: "In winter, my skin is super dry and very sensitive and reactive to most masks and lotions. I was skeptical at first, but it is a great hydrating mask that didn’t make me break out. I put it on last after my usual routine and woke up with wonderfully hydrated skin that stayed soft all day. I highly recommend it." —TaTReviews
Get it from Amazon for $14.18.
It can be adjusted to accommodate thicker pieces like sweaters.
Promising review: "You would think folding is simple, but with this product, it's a perfect fold every time. It makes a pile of clothing so compact. Everything is uniformly folded. Makes putting clothes in drawers so much neater and more orderly. It makes my life easier." —S. Erhart

It’s got some great activities inside that totally keep me busy, keep my anxiety in check, and truly is a great time suck to keep my mind focused on the activities and an escape from whatever is consuming me those days. Cannot recommend this book enough!!!" —Alex R. Pepin
Get it from Amazon for $10.31.
Promising review: "Love it, been using it every day. Since the infuser is full length, you can add a lot of fruit, cucumbers, and herb combos, I keep refilling the water all day and still get the flavors. Update: Six months later and I'm still in love with this bottle. I got it as part of my New Year's resolution to stop adding so many plastic bottles to our planet and to stop drinking flavored waters with chemicals. It's the first New Year's resolution I've ever kept, and do not foresee an end. I'd be lost without this bottle now, and it's also one of my favorite gifts or gift add-on to give." —Sannies
Get it from Amazon for $14.90 (available in 11 colors).
It's obviously also great for yoga, both at home and in class!
Promising review: "I'm a yoga newbie so I did a lot of research trying to decide on which mat to purchase. I decided not to go for the big bucks until I'm more committed. In the meantime, I chose this mat which I think this an amazing value. It's extra long, not too thick or thin, and has a nice sturdy yet springy feeling. I'm very satisfied with my choice and I highly recommend it for yoga or any type of exercise!" —Karen W.

Promising review: "I have chronic tension headaches (I am a very anxious person) and this has completely saved my brain. I was worried about using it on my temples and forehead because I have incredibly sensitive skin, but it hasn't made me break out or anything. It's a good level of dilution to not risk skin burns, and the addition of lavender helps calm my anxiety. I use this almost every day, sometimes multiple times a day if I'm really stressed. I've found that extending it down to my traps and behind my ears makes it work even better. 6/5 would always recommend." —E. R. Sutherland

Promising review: "I used this large steamer for the first time today. I cooked fresh steamed vegetables in it. It did a terrific job. The vegetables retained their flavor and cooked perfectly. The texture was perfect, also. I fixed cabbage, carrots, and large Brussels sprouts. There was more than enough room. I could have easily fit in more vegetables." —Tuxedo Cat

Promising review: "These are an absolute necessity in my house! I have two little girls and I never have enough of their dirty clothes to do loads separated by color. I Just throw everything in together (yes, even reds and white) and nothing ever bleeds onto the other. My husband does his own laundry too (he isn't the best at separating), and this saved him when a red sock accidentally made its way into the whites. If you do laundry, you need these!" —Shannon Schneider

It's packed with protein, Ceramide 3, and collagen so it can work quickly to get your hair shiny and soft.
Promising review: "My hair used to be really shiny. Then I had purple hair for a year, followed by blue for six months. My stylist had to bleach the beejeebers out of my hair to remove all of the funky colors. Ever since, my hair has been dry, crispy, and definitely not shiny. This stuff really makes a difference! I used it maybe 10-14 days ago, and I just redid it tonight. After shampooing, I towel-dried my hair and then put a big blob throughout my long-ish hair and clipped it up. I left it on for quite a while, just puttering around and getting chores done. Then I rinsed it and my hair feels soft and looks much shinier. I will keep using this as long as I need to (it will take a few years to grow out all the damage while maintaining length). I'm really glad that I read that article and bought the product" —SHANNON FRASER

This contains sanding discs and a polishing pad to remove scratches and remove cloudiness/dullness from your lenses!
Promising review: "The headlight lens on my passenger side was so yellow and cloudy that I actually had a driver get out of his car on a red light and come over to my car to tell me! (yes, thank you, I know). I decided to try this kit because of its high rating and lower price. It really works! The instructions are easy to follow, with photos to show you how the end of each step is supposed to look. Don't be afraid of this if you have no one to help. I am a grandmother with (at the time) a bad shoulder, who had never done this before, and it turned out beautifully." —C. Ferry
Get it from Amazon for $11.79 (also available with UV protection).
Did I mention it's all-natural and cruelty-free?
Promising review: "This cleanser is great! It fully removes all makeup from the brushes without leaving them feeling beat up (I'm not the most gentle when it comes to cleaning brushes). I use a thick foundation that soaks heavily into the bristles, but this removed it all. At first I thought it was a bit thin, but after using it, a little bit goes a long way. It has a nice lather, but very nicely and easily rinses out." —Kryssy
